In advance of Canada Day, I wanted to share a story about one of our customer’s to our north who said no to the status quo.

The Winnipeg Convention Centre is located in the center of downtown Winnipeg, in the Manitoba Province of Canada. Built in 1975, the convention center boasts 160,000 square feet of meeting, banquet and exhibition space, and the staff and services are renowned for their highest quality and commitment to excellence.

To get in front of rising cell phone usage costs and equip convention center staff with better coverage, Winnipeg began looking into potential mobility solutions. The initial requirements for a unified mobile communications platform were interoperability with the existing Mitel PBX system, better Wi-Fi coverage and performance, and greater cost efficiencies.
